[vc_product_feature title=”You’re here … now what?” title_color=”#444444″ font_size=”15″ font_weight=”600″ bottom_margin=”10px” icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-info-circle” icon_color=”#2b2b2b” icon_size=”custom” desc_font_size=”14px” desc_line_height=”26px” desc_color=”#3f3f3f” custom_icon_value=”40″]These are the answers to questions that you probably have but may have been afraid to ask. Most of us are just a little apprehensive walking into a new church for the first time. Not knowing what to expect usually makes us even more nervous. This page is intended to answer some of the more frequently asked questions, and make your experience a little less intimidating.[/vc_product_feature]
[vc_product_feature title=”What to expect when you arrive.” title_color=”#444444″ font_size=”15″ font_weight=”600″ bottom_margin=”10px” icon_type=”entypo” icon_color=”#2b2b2b” icon_size=”custom” desc_font_size=”14px” desc_line_height=”26px” desc_color=”#3f3f3f” custom_icon_value=”40″ icon_entypo=”entypo-icon entypo-icon-users”]Someone will greet you at the door with a handshake and a hello (or something like that). There are no reserved seats, so please sit anywhere you’d like. We are so glad you have decided to join us in worship.[/vc_product_feature]
[vc_product_feature title=”What is the service like?” title_color=”#444444″ font_size=”15″ font_weight=”600″ bottom_margin=”10px” icon_type=”openiconic” icon_color=”#2b2b2b” icon_size=”custom” desc_font_size=”14px” desc_line_height=”26px” desc_color=”#3f3f3f” custom_icon_value=”40″ icon_openiconic=”vc-oi vc-oi-heart”]With the exception of “special” services such as an ordination, or some other special emphasis, the first part of the service centers on praise to God through congregational singing, followed by a children’s sermon, and some sort of special music. In addition to traditional hymns, you may hear anything from contemporary to “bluegrass” to classical. During the second half of the service, the pastor will speak. At the end of the service, there will be a “hymn of invitation.” This is the time we invite individuals to make public any decisions they have made for Christ.[/vc_product_feature]

If you’re used to getting to work (or early morning classes) between 7 and 9, then 10:00 am really isn’t too bad. If you are interested in Bible study, our Sunday School starts at 11:00 am.[/vc_product_feature]
